Eight
of the eleven expected rare and non-abundant species
of small mammals were recorded in the studied territory:
Crocidura suaveolens, Sorex minutus, Neomys fodiens,
Dryomys nitedula, Cricetulus migratorius, Terricola
subterraneus, Micromys minutus, and Mus spicilegus.
Crocidura suaveolens was found in both dry meadows
and floodplain biotopes, and it was also recorded
nearby to field-protective plantations and human
settlements. Sorex minutus was also more common
in dry meadows and in floodplain biotopes. Neomys
fodiens is a typical floodplain endemic. Dryomys
nitedula was more common in oak forests and it is
prone to synanthropy. Cricetulus migratorius was
found in steppe areas and near fields of agricultural
crops. Terricola subterraneus was recorded only
in a dry maple-linden oak forest. Micromys minutus
prefers floodplain biotopes. Mus spicilegus was
found on agricultural crops and in steppe areas. |
